Those words do come
the Bible. And they nave
sometimes been quoted to jus-
tify a man’s lack of concern
for the welfare of others.
When we quote Scripture
we must be careful ^WHOM
we are quoting! {
It was Cain, the first mur-
derer, who asked that biting
question. God had said,
•Where is Abel, thy brother?”
And Cain was trying to es-
cape the consequences of his
crime,
Bach of us is responsible
for his brother’s welfare. That
is the very reason this fea-
ture is appearing in your
newspaper.
You and your family need
the spiritual resources our
churches offer. In whichever
Christian congregation you
select there are waiting to
welcome you many men and
women and young people
whose faith has taught them
a deep concern for their
brothers.

THE CHURCH FOB ALL ...
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest fac-
tor on earth far the building oi
character and good citizenship. H
is a storehouse of spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization can
survive. There are four sound
reasons why every-person should
attend services regularly and sup*
port the Church. They are; (1)
For his own sake. (2) For his
children's sake. (3) For the sake
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake oi the Church itself,
which needs his moral and ma-
terial support. Plan to go Do
church regularly and read your
Bible daily.
